Soarer13oy working for baskin robbins and going to school and you are driving an sc------good for you----------and I have to agree with everyone as well-----the **** is cool---if my car was manual I would love to do the same thing.

You have one last thing to do to that **** ------custom engrave a lexus symbol on the top of it------its like the icing on the cake.

Good luck.

Thanks for sharing.
